Issue/Introduction

Is it possible to monitor all CIC*** regions that use > 30% CPU and send alert. 

How to code this and in which member ?

 

 

Environment

SYSVIEW 16.0 and prior releases 

 

Resolution

The MVSTHRSH member is used to monitor the CICS regions. 

If the CICS job names can be easily masked, i.e., they all start with "CICS", then the coding can be similar to: 

          DEFINE JOBCPUT% RSCE CICS= LIMIT 30

If they cannot be easily masked, a GROUP of type JOBNAME needs to be created with all the CICS job names and then set the resource (RSCE) point
to the group name:

         DEFINE JOBCPUT% RSCE >CICSJOB LIMIT 30 , where CICSJOB is the GROUP name. 

 

The default alert is the WTO message. To send an API event to OPSMVS, add coding: OPSMVS YES
